Joe Meek's Journal

April 2020. This car truly represents the state of the MG sports car market in the US in 1979....with features deemed to be undesirable by a few MG aficionados but that are representative of the changing environmental and market demands of the 1970s.. Those demands made 1979 the last production year for MG Midgets.

In the photos you can see the car as it was when I brought it home in early 2020, the original dealer ad from the 1979 Seattle Times, and how the car looks in 2021 with just 21,000 original mi on the odometer.
